The ISLAM AWARENESS FOUNDATION (iAF) is a UK-registered charity dedicated to promoting an authentic understanding of Islam, addressing misconceptions about Islam and Muslims, and fostering community cohesion.
Our work focuses on education and public outreach through street dawah, free Qur'an and Islamic literature distribution, and community engagement.
We also provide humanitarian support, delivering food, water, and essential aid to those in need, regardless of faith or background.
Guided by the values of mercy, justice, and service, we work to strengthen communities and promote understanding across the UK.
Our organisation aims to promote Islam and support community welfare through the following initiatives:
Producing and distributing Islamic literature and educational materials
Organising seminars, interfaith events, and public outreach programmes
Setting up dawah stalls across major UK cities — including London, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol, Liverpool, Birmingham, and others — to engage in open dialogue and clarify misconceptions
Providing guidance and activities that support the moral development of young people
Promoting social cohesion, understanding, and positive community relations
Supporting the poor and needy through food, water, essential items, and financial assistance
Sharing the message of the Qur’an with non-Muslims through free distribution and personal engagement
We envision a thriving, compassionate community where people of all backgrounds are welcomed and supported through the teachings of Islam.
We aim to establish:
A peaceful Islamic Centre for worship, learning, and community engagement
A dedicated food bank serving the poor and vulnerable
A welcoming space for Muslims and non-Muslims alike
A hub for education, youth development, interfaith dialogue, and moral guidance
A sustainable and environmentally conscious community facility
Through these efforts, we strive to promote kindness, moderation, tolerance, and lasting community harmony across the UK.
Our mission is to promote a greater understanding of Islam through education, outreach, and compassionate community service.
Since May 2022, we have:
